Describe what you saw:


I have found that Central Falls District is not the best place for your children when it comes to performance.
The Central Falls schools are at a 57% insufficient progress rate compared to the RI district itself which is only
at 19%. The moderately performing rate in Central Falls is at 29% where in the state of RI, the percentage is
24%. Then, last but not least, the high performing rate in Central Falls is only 14% while in the state of RI, it
is 57%.



Why might this be useful for us?


These graphs are useful to us because they show us that Central Falls is not one of the top schools.
Compared to the rest of RI, it is a very poorly taught school district.
